The FM chart was completed as was the NRS scale. A statistical framework with graphs for the purpose of evaluating and commenting on the results was created.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>CONCLUSIONS<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\nThe following conclusions emerged from this study:<br \/>\nIn the first instance, it is important to observe the clear decrease in the time elapsed from the onset of symptoms to their resolution using Fascial Manipulation \u00a9 compared to the average time to resolve as stated in the literature (10-15 days vs 4-6 weeks, respectively).<br \/>\nThe number of sessions needed on average was 2-3, making this the method a great ally in managing this pathology.<br \/>\nAlthough in most cases the musculoskeletal components were examined and the respective points treated in order to solve the patient&#8217;s problems (both from a medical and physiotherapy point of view), from our data it can be seen that, in more than half of the cases, the origin of the problem was, in fact, found in the viscera (internal dysfunctions). Finally, analyzing the most frequently treated points, we can see that, in the vast majority of cases, the treatment focused on the fascial component at the level of the cause (buttock or hip) rather than in the area of the actual site of pain (lumbosacral).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Fascial Manipulation Method is a publication featuring actual case reports.
